start ;  and  in  particular  he  may,  if  he  think  it  neces- 
sary, order  the  horses  to  be  drawn  up  in  a  line  as  far 
behind  the  starting  post  as  he  thinks  necessar^^ 

(<^)  The  horses  must  be  started  from  a  walk.  If  the 
Starter  allow  a  start  to  take  place  in  front  of  the  start- 
ing post  the  start  is  void,  and  the  horses  must  be 
started  again,  and  the  Starter  shall  forfeit  a  sum  not 
exceeding  I50. 

{c)  The  horses  shall  so  far  as  is  practicable  be  drawn 


41 

up  before  the  start  in  an  order  (reckoned  from  the 
whip  hand)  to  be  determined,  when  the  Stewards 
think  fit,  by  lots  to  be  drawn  by  the  jockeys  at  the 
time  of  weighing  out. 

{d)  The  person  appointed  to  start  the  horses  shall 
mark  in  his  list  the  time  when  the  horses  in  each  race 
actually  started  ;  and  if  there  have  been  any  false 
starts,  the  first  of  them  shall  be  considered  as  the  time 
of  starting  for  that  race,  and  he  shall  make  a  report 
thereof  to  the  Stewards  in  the  afternoon  of  the  day 
the  races  are  run.  And  if  any  delay  shall  have  taken 
place,  he  shall  state  by  whom,  or  by  what  cause,  the 
delay  was  occasioned. 

(<?)  Every  horse  which  comes  up  to  the  post  in  time 
to  start  shall  be  liable  for  his  whole  stake. 

62.  A  horse  which  crosses  another  is  disqualified, 
unless  it  be  proved  that  he  was  two  clear  lengths 
ahead  of  the  other  when  he  crossed. 

63.  If  a  horse  or  his  jockey  jostle  another  horse,  the 
jockey  which  jostles  the  other  is  disqualified,  unless  it 
be  proved  that  the  jostle  was  wholly  caused  by  the 
fault  of  some  other  jockey,  or  that  the  other  horse  or 
his  jockey  was  partly  in  fault. 

64.  If  a  horse  run  the  wrong  side  of  a  post  he  must 
turn  back  and  run  the  course  from  the  post  at  which 
he  left  it. 

65.  If  a  race  has  been  run  by  all  the  horses  at  wrong 
weights,  or  a  wrong  distance,  or  when  the  Judge  is 
not  in  the  box,  the  Stewards  shall  order  it  to  be  run 
after  the  advertised  time  of  the  last  race  of  the  same 
day. 


42 

66.  When  only  one  horse  appears  for  a  match  or 
sweepstakes  he  must  walk  over,  except  by  consent  o^^ 
the  other  persons  engaged,  or,  in  the  case  of  a  plate, 
by  consent  of  the  Stewards  of  the  meeting  ;  but  on  a 
division  after  a  dead  heat  it  shall  not  be  necessary  for 
a  horse  to  walk  over. 

{a)  In  walking  over  for  a  race  a  horse  need  not  go 
the  entire  course  ;  it  shall  be  sufficient  for  the  jockey 
to  be  started  by  the  Starter  from  the  distance. 


DEAD  HEAT. 

67.  A  dead  heat  for  the  first  place  shall  be  run  off 
after  the  last  race  on  the  same  day  (except  by  special 
permission  of  the  Stewards)  unless  the  owners  agree 
to  divide.  The  other  horses  shall  be  deemed  to  have 
been  beaten,  but  they  shall  be  entitled  to  their 
places  (if  any)  as  if  the  race  had  been  finally  deter- 
mined the  first  time. 

{a)  If  a  dead  heat  be  run  b}'  two  or  more  for  second 
or  any  lower  place  in  a  race,  the  owners  shall  divide 
where  the  winner  is  objected  to,  and  if  they  cannot 
agree  as  to  w^hich  of  them  is  to  have  a  cup  or  other 
prize  which  cannot  be  divided,  the  question  shall  be 
determined  by  lot  by  the  Stewards. 

{b)  When  owners  divide  they  shall  divide  equally  all 
the  moneys  or  other  prizes  which  any  of  them  could 
take  if  the  dead  heat  was  run  off. 

{c)  Horses  running  a  dead  heat  for  a  race  or  place 
shall  be  deemed  winners  of  the  race  or  place  until  the 


43 

dead  heat  is  run  off  or  the  owners  agree  to  devid,  and, 
if  the  owners  agree  to  divide,  each  horse  which  divides 
shall  be  a  winner  of  the  race  or  place  for  which  he 
divides. 

{d)  On  a  dead  heat  for  a  match,  the  match  is  off ; 
or,  if  run  over  again,  is  a  fresh  match. 

{e)  When  a  dead  heat  is  run  for  a  second  place,  and 
an  objection  is  made  to  the  winner  of  the  race,  if  such 
objection  be  declared  valid  in  time  for  the  dead  heat 
to  be  run  off  on  the  day  of  the  race,  the  Steward  may 
direct  it  to  be  run  off  accordingly  ;  otherwise  the 
horses  which  ran  the  dead  heat  shall  divide. 

68.  A  race  cannot  be  decided  unless  the  Judge  or 
his  authorized  deputy,  or  substitute,  or  a  Steward  oc- 
cupy the  Judge's  box  at  the  time  when  the  horses  pass 
the  winning  post.  The  Judge  shall  send  a  report  of 
the  result  of  the  race,  signed  by  him,  to  the  registry 
oijfice. 


VII.— SELLING  RACES,  AND  SALE  WITH 
ENGAGEMENTS. 

69.  Any  horse  running  for  any  race  to  be  sold,  shall 
if  the  winner  be  sold  by  auction,  immediately  after  the 
race,  and  the  surplus  over  the  selling  price  shall  be 
divided  between  the  owner  of  the  second  horse  and  the 
race  fund.  If  sold,  the  horse  shall  not  leave  the  place 
of  sale  until  authorized  by  the  Clerk  of  the  Course  to 
do  so  ;  and  if  the  horse  be  not  paid  for,  or  the  Clerk 
of  the  Course  satisfied  with  the  security  within  a  quar- 


44 

ter  of  an  hour,  he  may  order  the  horse  to  be  put  up  a 
second  time,  and  the  purchaser  at  the  first  sale  shall 
be  responsible  for  any  deficiency  arising  from  the 
second  sale,  and  shall  be  declared  a  defaulter  until  it  is 
paid. 

70.  All  other  horses  running  to  be  sold,  may  be 
claimed  after  the  race  for  the  selling  price,  and  the 
amount  of  the  stakes  or  plate  by  the  owners  of  other 
horses  running  in  the  race,  five  per  cent,  of  the  amount 
paid  to  go  to  the  former. 

{a)  In  claiming,  the  advertised  value  of  the  race  at 
time  of  entry  shall  be  taken  as  the  value  of  the  race. 

71.  Owners  of  horses  placed  shall  have  priority  iu 
the  order  of  their  places,  and  if  the  owners  of  two  or 
more  horses  having  equal  rights  claim,  they  are  to 
draw  lots.     The  owner  of  the  winner  has  the  last  claim. 

72.  No  person  can  claim  more  than  one  horse. 

73.  Every  claim  must  be  made  to  the  Clerk  of  the 
Course  within  a  quarter  of  an  hour  after  the  race. 

74.  The  price  of  every  horse  claimed  or  sold  or 
bought  in,  must  be  paid  to  the  Clerk  of  the  Course, 
and  an  order  given  by  him  for  the  deliver}^  of  the 
same. 

75.  In  the  case  of  a  horse  being  claimed,  if  the  price 
be  not  paid  before  seven  o'clock  in  the  evening  of  the 
day  of  the  race,  the  claimant  forfeits  his  right.  If 
none  of  the  other  persons  entitled  accept  the  horse 
the  owner  may  insist  on  the  first  claimant  taking  and 
paying  for  it,  and  if  he  refuse  or  neglect  to  do  so,  he 
shall  be  declared  a  defaulter  in  respect  of  the  price. 


45 

76.  If  a  horse  walk  over  for  a  selling  race  he  will  be 
liable  to  be  sold,  and  any  surplus  above  the  selling 
price  will  go  to  the  fund. 

77.  The  foregoing  rules  relating  to  claiming  and 
selling  races  shall  be  subject  to  the  following  provis- 
ions in  cases  where  a  horse  is  objected  to  under  Part 
X  of  these  rules  : 

{a)  If  the  objection  has  not  been  made  until  after 
the  horse  has  been  claimed  or  bought,  the  person  who 
claimed  or  bought  him  shall,  if  the  objection  be  de- 
clared valid,  have  the  option  of  returning  or  retaining^ 
him  at  the  price  of  a  beaten  horse. 

{b)  If  the  objection  be  made  before  the  horse  has 
been  claimed  or  bought,  the  time  for  delivering  him  is 
thereby  postponed  until  such  time  after  the  determina- 
tion of  the  objection  as  the  Stewards  appoint,  and  if 
the  objection  be  declared  valid,  the  person  who  has 
claimed  or  bought  him  shall  have  the  same  option  as 
in  the  last  mentioned  case. 

78.  If  a  dead  heat  be  declared  for  the  first  or  any 
other  place  in  a  race,  the  time  for  claiming  or  selling 
the  horses  running  the  dead  heat  is  thereby  postponed 
until  the  dead  heat  is  run  off,  as  the  Stewards  appoint. 
In  case  of  a  division,  each  of  the  horses  dividing  is  a 
winner  for  the  purposes  of  these  rules  relating  to 
claiming  and  selling,  and  any  surplus  (in  the  case  of 
a  selling  race)  shall  be  divided  between  those  horses 
and  the  race  fund. 

79.  When  a  horse  is  sold  with  his  engagements  or 
any  part  of  them,  the  seller  cannot  strike  the  horse 


46 

out  of  any  such  engagements,  and  he  remains  liable 
for  the  amount  of  the  forfeits  in  each  of  the  engage- 
ments ;  but  he  may,  if  compelled  to  pay  them  by  the 
purchaser's  default,  place  the  forfeit  on  the  forfeit  list 
as  due  from  the  purchaser  to  himself. 

80.  In  all  cases  of  sale  by  private  treaty  the  written 
acknowledgment  of  both  parties  that  the  horse  was 
sold  with  the  engagement  is  necessary  to  entitle  the 
seller  or  buyer  to  the  benefit  of  these  rules,  and  if 
certain  engagements  be  specified  it  is  to  be  understood 
that  those  only  are  sold  with  the  horse.  But  when  a 
horse  is  sold  by  public  auction,  the  advertised  con- 
ditions of  the  sale  are  sufficient  evidence,  and  if  certain 
engagements  only  be  specified,  it  is  to  be  understood 
that  those  only  are  sold  with  the  horse,  and  if  he  has 
been  claimed  as  the  winner  of  a  race  of  which  it  was 
a  condition  that  the  winner  was  to  be  sold  with  his 
engagements,  this  also  is  sufficient. 

81.  When  a  person  is  entitled  by  purchase  or  other- 
wise to  start  for  any  engagement  a  horse  which  was 
entered  by  another  person,  and  he  is  prevented  by 
these  rules  from  starting  the  horse  without  paying  the 
forfeit  or  fees  to  which  he  would  not  otherwise  be 
liable,  he  may,  if  he  pay  such  forfeits  and  fees,  start 
the  horse  and  place  the  forfeits  or  fees  on  the  forfeit 
list,  with  the  names  of  the  horses  in  respect  of  which 
they  are  due,  as  due  to  himself. 


47 
VIII.— STEWARDvS.— DUTlEvS  AND   POWER  OF. 

82.  The  Stewards  of  a  meeting  shall  have  full  powers 
to  make  all  such  arrangements  for  the  conduct  of  a 
meeting  as  the}-  think  fit ;  and  to  regulate  and  con- 
trol the  conduct  of  all  officials, '  and  of  all  jockeys, 
grooms,  and  persons  attending  on  horses  ;  and  to  de- 
termine all  questions  or  disputes  arising  between  any 
persons  at  or  in  relation  to  anything  done  or  written 
in  reference  to  racing,  except  only  disputes  or  claims 
relating  to  bets. 

83.  They  shall  have  powder  to  punish  at  their  dis- 
cretion any  official  or  jockey,  or  other  person  subject 
to  their  control,  with  fine  or  with  suspension  from 
acting  or  riding  at  the  same  meeting,  and  to  report  to 
the  Committee  any  further  punishment  which  they 
consider  necessary. 

Provided  that  they  shall  not  fine  any  person  more 
than  I50. 

84.  They  shall  exclude  from  the  stands,  enclosures, 
saddling  paddocks,  weighing  rooms,  and  other  places 
under  their  control,  ever>^  person  whose  name  is  in  the 
unpaid  forfeit  list,  and  who  has  been  twice  so  published 
in  "The  Spirit  of  The  Times  ;"  also  everyjockey  who 
has  been  suspended  for  corrupt  practices  on  the  turf, 
so  long  as  the  sentence  against  such  person  or  jockey 
remains  in  force.  They  shall,  in  like  manner,  exclude 
any  person  who  has  been  declared  by  the  Stewards  of 
any  recognized  meeting  in  any  country,  to  have  been 
guilty  of  any  corrupt  or  fraudulent  practice  on  the 
turf.     They  shall   further  have   power  to   exclude  at 


48 

their  discretion,   any  person   from    all  or   any  places 
under  their  control. 

85.  If  any  case  occurs  which  is  not,  or  which  is  al- 
leged not  to  be,  provided  for  by  these  rules,  it  shall  be 
determined  by  the  Stewards  in  such  manner  as  they 
think  just,  and  they  shall  report  the  case  with  their 
decision  to  the  Committee  for  confirmation. 

86.  The  decision  of  the  Stewards  or  of  the  Committee 
of  the  Club  in  case  of  appeal  shall  be  final,  and  shall 
not  be  questioned  in  any  court,  except  by  leave  of  the 
Stewards  by  whom  it  was  made. 

87.  A  Steward  ma}-  appoint  a  deputy  at  any  time. 

88.  The  power  of  Stewards  or  their  deputies  continue 
after  the  meeting  for  all  purposes  relating  to  disputes, 
objections,  penalties  and  disqualifications,  and  the 
Clerk  of  the  Course  shall  at  once  report  such  matters 
to  the  Stewards,  either  verbally  or  by  letter.  Should 
no  decision  have  been  arrived  at  by  the  Stewards 
within  seven  days  of  such  objection  being  laid,  the 
Clerk  of  the  Course  shall  then  report  the  case  to  the 
Committee,  who  may,  at  their  discretion,  decide  the 
matter  ;  and  if  they  consider  there  has  been  any  negli- 
gence, order  any  additional  expense  w^hich  may 
thereby  arise  to  be  defrayed  out  of  the  funds  of  the 
meetings  at  which  the  case  occurred. 

89.  The  Committee  shall  be  ex-officio  Stewards  of 
ever}'  meeting  held  under  these  rules,  and  shall  have 
the  right  of  entry  to  all  stands  and  paddocks  (except 
private  ones)  at  such  meetings,  on  production  of  their 
badges. 


49 

90.  The  Stewards  shall  appo'iit  an  adequate  staff  of 
officials  for  every  meeting. 

91.  Any  complaint  against  officials  shall  be  made  in 
writing  to  the  Stewards  of  the  meeting  only,  and  if 
they  think  fit  they  shall  forward  the  same  to  the 
American  Pony  Racing  Committee. 

92.  The  Stewards,  in  case  of  urgent  necessity,  may, 
from  time  to  time,  put  off  any  races  from  day  to  day, 
until  a  Sunday  intervenes. 

93.  The  Stewards  shall  have  power  at  any  time,  and 
either  upon  or  without  any  objection  made,  to  order 
an  examination  b}^  such  person  or  persons  as  thty 
think  fit,  of  the  mouth  of  anj^  horse  entered  for  a  race, 
or  who  has  run  in  a  race. 

94.  If  any  objection  be  made  as  to  the  height  or  age 
of  any  horse  (not  holding  the  annual  certificate  of 
sight),  the  Stewards  shall  have  power  to  have  them 
objected  to  re  measured  in  the  presence  of  the  Stewards, 
who  shall  satisfy  themselves  as  to  the  correctness  of 
the  measurement  or  age. 

95.  The  Stewards  shall  also  have  power  to  call  on 
any  person  in  whose  name  a  horse  is  entered  to  pro- 
duce proof  that  the  horse  entered  is  not  the  property 
eiher  wholly  or  in  part  of  any  person  whose  name  is 
on  the  Unpaid  Forfeit  Ivist  or  otherwise  disqualified 
or  to  produce  proof  of  the  extent  of  his  interest  or 
property  in  the  horse,  and  in  default  of  such  proof 
being  given  to  their  satisfaction  they  may  declare  the 
horse  disqualified. 


50 
IX.— FORFEIT  LIST. 

96.  An  unpaid  forfeit  list  shall  be  kept  at  the  Regis- 
try Office,  and  shall  be  published  in  ' '  The  Spirit  of

the  person  from  whom,  and  the  horses  (if  any)  in  re- 
spect of  which  the  sums  are  due.  Entries,  stakes,  fines 
and  forfeits  which  have  been  so  published  must  be 
paid  directly  into  the  Registry  Office,  and  until  so 
paid  they  shall  not  be  removed  from  the  list.

fees  or  forfeit  is  payable  (whether  as  an  official  or 
otherwise),  may  (or  shall  if  he  be  an  official),  within  a 
month  of  the  publication  of  the  next  forfeit  list,  notify 
the  same  in  writing  signed  by  him  to  the  Registry 
Office,  or  to  the  Clerk  of  the  Course,  and  every  such 
statement  received  by  the  Clerk  of  the  Course  shall 
be  forthwith  transmitted  by  him  to  the  Registry 
Office. 

98.  So  long  as  the  name  of  a  person  is  in  the  unpaid 
forfeit  list,  he  cannot  subscribe  to  any  sweepstakes, 
and  no  horse  can  be  entered  by  him  or  in  his  sub- 
scription for  any  race,  whether  acting  as  agent  or  other- 
wise, and  no  horse  which  has  been  entered  by  him  or 
in  his  name,  or  of  which  he  is  whole  or  part  owner,  ot 
which  after  his  default  has  been  twice  published  in 


51 

"The  Spirit  of  the  Times,"  shall  be  proved  to  the 
satisfaction  of  the  Stewards  to  be  under  his  care,  train- 
ing, management  or  superintendence,  shall  be  quali- 
fied for  any  race  ;  and  so  long  as  any  horse  is  in  the 
unpaid  forfeit  list  such  horse  shall  not  be  entered  or 
run  for  any  race. 

99.  The  Clerk  of  the  Course  at  every  meeting  shall 
put  up  in  his  office  during  such  meeting  a  copy  of  the 
said  forfeit  list  for  the  time  being. 

100.  If  any  horse  which,  or  the  owner  of  which,  in 
any  forfeit  list,  be  allowed  to  start,  the  Clerk  of  the 
course  shall  be  fined  $25. 

loi.  The  Clerk  of  the  Course  of  every  meeting  shall 
forward  to  the  Registry  Office  a  list  of  all  unpaid  fine 
for  the  meeting  within  two  months  of  the  date  of  the 
which  they  were  incurred,  and  unless  so  forwarded 
they  shall  not  be  entered  in  the  forfeit  list  or  be  con- 
sidered as  recoverable. 


X.— OBJECTIONS  AND  COMPLAINTvS. 

102.  The  determination  of  a  judge,  declaring  a  horse 
to  have  won  or  to  be  entitled  to  a  place  shall  be  final 
unless  an  objection  is  made  and  allowed  on  the  ground 
of  disqualification.  Provided  that  this  rule  shall  not 
prevent  a  Judge  from  correcting  any  mistake. 

103.  Every  objection  shall  be  in  writing,  and  must 
be  signed  by  the  owner  of  some  other  horse  engaged 
on  the  same  race,  or  by  his  deputed  agent  or  jockey 
or  groom,  and  must  be  made  to  one  of  the  Stewards, 


52

An  objection  may  also  be  made  without  deposit  by 
reward  or  licensed  official  of  a  meeting. 

104.  If  an  objection  to  a  horse  engaged  in  a  race  be 
made  not  later  than  half-past  ten  in  the  morning  of 
day  for  the  race,  the  Stewards  may  require  his  qualifi- 
cation to  be  proved  before  the  race  ;  and  in  default  of 
such  proof  being  given  to  their  satisfaction,  they  may 
declare  him  disqualified. 

105.  An  objection  to  a  horse,  on  the  ground  of  a 
cross  or  jostle,  or  of  his  horse  not  having  run  the 
proper  course,  or  of  any  other  matter  occurring  in  the 
race,  must  be  made  within  a  quarter  of  an  hour  after 
the  finish.

under  Part  V. 


53 

may  be  received  within  fourteen  days  of  the  conckis-

107.  An  objection  on  the  ground  that  a  horse  is  dis- 
quahfied  by  reason  of  any  default,  entered  in  the 
forfeit  list,  may  be  received  within  ten  days  after  the

A  great  deal  of  unnecessary  delay  at  the  start  in 
the  second  heat  was  caused  by  Messrs.  Keene  and 
Kernochan,  whose  mission  at  this  particular  time 
appeared  to  be  to  worry  Mr.  A.  Belmont  Purdy,  the 
starter.  After  each  had  been  fined  I50,  a  start  was 
made.  Both  heats  in  this  race  were  beautifully  run, 
and  resulted  in  a  close  contest  between  Rattler  and 
Bar  None,  the  former  winning  each  time  by  a  head. 
The  result   was  particularly  happy  in  a  home   pony 


6o 

winning.  Both  Mr.  Dallett  and  Mr.  Jacob  displa5^ed 
excellent  jockeyship.  Mr.  Keene,  on  Wings,  was  left 
in  the  first  heat.  Time — First  heat,  i8  seconds  ;  second 
heat,  i8)4  seconds.

Geo.  Whitlock  b.  m.  Josephine  H. ,  6,  145 Scratched 

This  was  considered  the  best  race  of  the  day,  con- 
siderable rivalry  existing  between  Roulette  and  Buck- 
shot. A  good  start  was  made  and  Keene  immediately 
took  the  lead.  Roulette  and  Betsy  following.  At  the 
half  Mr.  Haight  (Two  Bits),  mistaking  distance,  pulled 
up.  Buckshot  held  the  lead  until  last  quarter,  when 
Roulette  passed  him,  and  going  to  the  front  won 
easily  by  about  a  length.  Betsy  made  a  gallant  race, 
defeating  Sweetheart,     Time — 1.25^. 

Third   Race. — Champion  Stakes,   value  $200,   $50  to  second. 
Entrance  $20,  p.  p.     Open  handicap  for  horses  14  hands  3  inches 
and  under.     One  mile  on  the  flat.     Value  5150.

J.  C.  Kilbreth  ch.  g    Trouble,  a.,  145. .   .Mr.  Dallett,   Disqualified 

This  was  a  beautiful  race  and  well  ridden.  Punjaub 
took  the  lead  until  overhauled  bj^  Chieftain,  who  held 
it  until  the  last  quarter,  when  Trouble,  abl}'  handled 
by  Dallett,  went  to  the  front,  winning  by  a  neck  after 
a   strong   drive.     Mr.   Dallett' s  win  was  very  popular 


6i 

and  all  the  Orange  spectators  were  greatly  enthused. 
Unfortunately,  Mr.  Dallett,  on  dismounting  and  be- 
fore weighing  out,  went  outside  the  track  for  his 
mackintosh,  whereupon  he  was  protested  by  the 
Tamalamah  Stables.  The  rule  is  very  strict  in  this 
particular,  making  it  imperative  for  the  judges  to 
abide  by  it,  and  in  consequence  Trouble  was  disquali- 
fied and  Chieftain  given  the  race.  Of  course  this 
verdict  was  not  popular,  and  I  heard  many  remarks 
among  the  uninformed  that  it  was  straining  a  point, 
etc,  all  of  which  was  entirely  absurd.  What  is  the 
object  in  having  rules  if  they  are  not  to  be  respected, 
and  if  one  offender  were  pardoned  what  would  be  the 
result  of  inflicting  the  penalt}^  on  the  next  guilty  one? 
Although  Mr.  Dallett  deserved  the  stakes  he  had  won 
so  handsomely,  the  protest  was  entirely  correct.  As 
an  evidence  that  it  was  done  in  the  interest  of  the 
sport,  Mr.  Bell  gave  the  stakes  to  the  Essex  Club  to 
help  defray  the  expenses  of  the  meeting.  Time — 
2.02^. 

Fourth    Race — Essex    Stakes,   value  $150,   of  which    $50  to 
second.     Entrance  Sio,   p.   p.      Open   handicap   for   hacks    and

After  considerable  delay,  owing  to  Roulette's  rest- 
lessness, both  Mr.  Kernochan  and  Mr.  Keene  got 
away  to  a  good  start  leaving  Betsey  standing  a  dozen 
lengths  behind.  Buckshot  and  Roulette  ran  neck  an<i 
neck  until  within  200  yards  from  the  wire,  when  the 
latter  drew  ahead  and  won  by  a  length.  Betsey 
showed  a  remarkable  turn  of  speed,  closing  up  the 
gap  and  coming  in  a  good  third,  gaining  at  every 
jump.     Time — 1. 13  4-5.

This  event  became  a  procession  by  the  time  the 
quarter  had  been  covered.  Wild  Cat,  carrying  four 
pounds  over,  took  the  lead  immediately  and  romped 
in  the  easiest  possible  winner,  though  Post  Boy  put  on 
steam  in  the  stretch  and  gained  at  the  finish.  Duncan 
was  never  in  it.     Time — 0.57  3-5.

Mr.  Hitchcock's  patience  was  sorely  tried  in  getting 
this  field  off,  but  when  it  finally  got  away,  Bess  took 
the  lead,  and  came  home  an  easy  winner,  with  Sur- 
prise, under  the  whip,  a  good  second  ;  Florida  several 
lengths  third,  and  the  rest  of  the  lot  considerabl}^  be- 
hind. Mr.  Underhill,  on  Cheyenne,  made  a  particu- 
larly good  race.  He  got  a  bad  start  and  lost  distance, 
but  closed  up  and  got  through  a  hard  field  with  con- 
siderable skill.     Time — 0.28  3-5. 

Fifth  Race. — Galloway  Stakes.  Handicap  Sweepstakes  of  |2o

Betsey  was  again  left  standing,  but  catching  up  with 
an  astonishing  burst  of  speed,  took  the  lead  and  was 
never  headed,    winning  with    lots    to   spare.     Little

Blanch  showed  greatly  improved  form  since  her  ap- 
pearance at  Meadow  Brook,  and  made  a  good  second,

The  three  kept  well  together  until  coming  down  the 
stretch,  where  Nina  assumed  a  commanding  lead,  with 
Buster  running  a  good  second.  Just  after  clearing  the 
last  hurdle,  Buster  slipped  and  went  down  in  the  mud, 
Mr.  Jacob  cleverly  keeping  from  going  under,  and 
showing  sportsmanlike  pluck  by  mounting  and  finish- 
ing out  the  race.     No  time  taken. 

Attendance  350  ;  weather  bad  ;  track  very  heavy.
